embodiment 30

[0043]FIG. 3A through FIG. 3D are illustrative of an additional sleeve embodiment 30 containing magnets. In this concept variation, an adapter sleeve 30 will house the personal exhale filter device 98 on one side 37 and have a magnetic receiver 39 the other 38 that will allow the user to attach via the magnetic connection. This allows the accessory sleeve to fit various diameter and larger geometric shaped vaporizers 95 and electronic cigarettes, since the accessory filter assembly 30 would not have to fit entirely over the vaporizer 95 as in other embodiments. The sleeve 30 further includes a curved surface 38 opposite a side 37 that holds the filter 98.

[0044]A slight variation contemplated herein has the attachment mechanism as in FIG. 3A through FIG. 3D comprising magnets 39, but instead of flipping the device around to exhale into it, the variation slides up using a slider button (or translational lever) and subsequently retracts. In this manner, the filter mouthpiece 94 is exte...

embodiment 40

[0045]FIG. 4A through FIG. 4C illustrate an additional sleeve embodiment 40 particularly for receiving a filter 98 (or possibly a vaporizer 85, 87, 88) via a channel 42. The sleeve 40 incorporates an eyelet 44 at an end thereof for connecting to a clip, a keychain and / or a lanyard 93, as shown in FIG. 4C.

[0046]As detailed herein (FIG. 1A through FIG. 2G), the invention in one aspect is an accessory e-cigarette and filter assembly 10, 20 comprising: an electronic cigarette 88 (or vaporizer 87) to be mated to an exhale filter 98; a first longitudinal axis 89 positioned lengthwise along the accessory e-cigarette and filter assembly 10, 20; a first aperture 11, 21 centered about the first longitudinal axis 89 for receiving and holding the electronic cigarette 88 at an upper portion thereof; a second aperture 15a, 25a centered about the first longitudinal axis 89 for receiving and holding the electronic cigarette at a lower portion thereof; a third aperture 12, 22 centered about a second...

Abstract

An accessory e-cigarette and filter assembly that is essentially a holder for both a vaporizer / e-cigarette and an exhale filter is disclosed. The device also allows for removably pairing an exhale filter to a vaporizer and provides impact protection thereto. In the preferred embodiment, a sleeve with parallel channels provides for the filter and e-cigarette to be juxtaposed however a mouthpiece for the filter and a mouthpiece for the e-cigarette are at opposite ends.
